My DA doesn't seem to be automatically updating, which is okay with me. However, how can I get a notification when new updates are available?

Join the da-announce list. It's a standard majordomo announcement list, and you can subscribe by sending an email to majordomo@daserversolutions.com from the email address where you want to receive the announcements, with any (or no) subject, and the following line in the body:
subscribe da-announce

You can autoupdate it too :) Just add this code to your /etc/cron.daily/da_update:

#!/bin/sh
echo "action=update&value=program" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue

Should be /etc/cron.daily/da_update. :)

Yes, you are right, thank you for this addition :)

Maybe that can be added as an option in CustomBuild, if it's not already present. What do you think?

Maybe :) But John needs to give a permission for it.
